MAGHULL residents are being asked to help decide the future of Glenn Park Bowling Green.

Bowling clubs and locals from throughout the Maghull area can canvass their views on whether there is a demand for the bowling green at the Town's Glenn Park site.

The council says the green has been out of use for some time following the demise of Alt Park Bowling Club and is currently kept in basic condition in case potential users come along.

Maghull Town clerk, Barry Smith, said: "The council will want to make a decision about its future this autumn.

"It could be that a club, or a number of clubs come along and the green then has a future.

"However, if this does not happen we will need to decide what to do with it.

"It could be that we landscape the area into the park."

Amenities committee chairman, Tony Robertson, added: "We have previously advertised the availability of the green via the local press and had no takers but we want to give people another chance to have a say.

"The council will bring the green back up to a good standard if there is demand but if there is not we may as well open up the green area and landscape it into the park by taking down the high fences, etc. Any views and ideas are welcome."
